their drums as they sounded the tnm-
luin, and every ear was turned to tbe
quarter from whence this came to make
out what they were playing. Various
guesses were offered in that direction. but
were all given up, one by one, as the wind
Illlleu or shifted and the sounds got so
U'lIIDly mixed up that not the most perfect
ma, Muster 81 OI music could say for certainty
that they expressed any tune M olI A.
last somebody exclaimed: "Wbv tbot 10

came into view every drummer and fifer j.,
the whole grand army PLAYED .sYontea

possible for them to make it.-W q

The French Bicycle Corns.

Regularly organized bicycle corps are
now attached to the French army, and in
recent maneuvers they have done all such
work as the carrying OF orders and dis
patches, and done it with more speed ard
puhctualty than mounted troopers. In
some cases bicyclists have accomplished
journeys OF fifty and sixty miles u dav for
SIX or eight days in succession. At this rate
Dlcyclist is not only more efficient than
a horseman but cheaper; for a b.cycIe
costs originally less than half the price of
cavalry horse, wears as long, is far less
expensive to keep and is much less ukelv
